Non-combat movement

@Cpl-Hicks this is why its really cadgy to leave mobility units out of combat for later use/flexibility

@ShadowHAwk:

@Caesar:

Yes, this usually get abused by the Allies since they have more aircraft and more carriers to move around, sometimes I will let US carriers just carry a single plane so ANZAC and UK can launch raids on weak targets to have a place to land.

Or worst, have 1 anzac, Uk plane on a US carrier, carrier moves 2 spaces in non combat plane can safely attack 4 spaces away.
You really sure those transports are safe because of your blockers?

Carriers are awesome like that, it’s one the reason why I build the Graf Zeppelin on G1 just encase I sent the Kreigsmarine to back up the Italians.

Yes, I have watched almost all of you youtube videos and noticed a lot of things you have done to help make this fantastic game even more interesting and enjoyable to play. You have done an excellent job on everything I’ve seen and Thank you for your input.

Thank you very much.

@Gargantua:

If your sub fails, and the other sub survives you must retreat.

Even if the attacking sub doesn’t sink the enemy’s sub, the transports can still do debarkment.
It needs only that the other sub submerge.

Just see the game notes for the TripleA map of Global 1940 2nd Edition.
There it says:

@Game:

…
Below is a list of rules that the TripleA game engine either does not enforce, or enforces incorrectly, at this point. Each item starts with a code in parentheses that represents how you may fix or correct the rule.
(PE) = Player Enforced = You must be aware of the rule and must follow it. The engine will not stop you from breaking the rule.
…
Rules specific to 1940 the engine does not do, but you must follow:
…

(PE) You are not allowed to blitz or move any units through Friendly Neutrals, including the same turn they are captured, unless they have been previously attacked.
…

So it is true, TripleA “allows” your move, but players have to be aware that it is against the rules (and for this drop it).

@Cow:

If you have a “chance” to win a battle you can plan to move your carrier through it on non combat.

Imagine a destroyer is blocking your carrier and you got 2 fighters, you can send 1 to the destroyer and the other 3 spaces away where it would land on your carrier after.

Yes, but that’s not what was asked, so let’s not confuse the issue.  It’s not about planning, it’s about whether it’s allowed to moved through a space where combat occurred.  And that is allowed.

Instead of thinking of it as the planes “moving with” the carrier, remember that the planes take off from the carriers into the air at the start of the combat move. Then the planes and the carrier actually move independently of one another.

It just happens that usually that more often than not your planes are going to land on the carrier and they will move the same number of spaces.
